The Spurs’ injured list got longer Monday with the announcement rookie guard Derrick White has fractured his right wrist in a game in the G-League.

White was on assignment in Austin when he suffered the injury in a game Friday against the Texas Legends.

White, 23, will be re-evaluated at a later date, at which point a timeline for his recovery will be assessed, the Spurs say.

The 29th pick in the June draft out of Colorado, White has appeared in four NBA games with the Spurs, scoring one point in 21 minutes.

Parker gets practice time: The Spurs’ Austin affiliate got a big-name boost Monday with the assignment of recuperating point guard Tony Parker to the G-League.

The move was procedural in nature, allowing the 35-year-old Parker to practice with the G-League club at the Spurs’ practice facility on a day the NBA club had off.

It marked Parker’s second practice session with the Austin club. Spurs coach Gregg Popovich has said Parker is eyeing a December return from a ruptured left quadriceps tendon.

Ailing center getting closer: In other injury news, center Joffrey Lauvergne appears to be nearing a return from right ankle sprain.

Lauvergne, 26, has missed seven games since rolling the ankle in an Oct. 23 win over Toronto.

He is not sure if he will be available for Tuesday’s game against the Los Angeles Clippers, but is optimistic about his short-term chances of getting back on the floor.

“It will be very soon, I think,” Lauvergne said.

Asked if Lauvergne might return before the end of the homestand that ends Saturday against Chicago, Popovich said “probably.”

Look Pop, no hands: If there was a play that made Popovich smile during the Spurs’ 112-95 win over Phoenix on Sunday, it came late in the first quarter.

Covering Suns’ scoring sensation Devin Booker on the wing, Spurs rookie Brandon Paul slipped a screen to remain in front of Booker and draw a charge.

Popovich leapt to his feet cheering.

“He said, ‘Great job, way to move your body and move your hands,’” said Paul, a 26-year-old undrafted rookie out of Illinois. “There were times I got caught putting my hands in the play and getting fouls called on me. That’s something I’ve been trying to work on.”

Paul has earned bench minutes so far as a steady defender. His main adjustment to the NBA game has been foul avoidance — he is averaging 4.2 calls per 36 minutes.

Paul believes Popovich was pleased with the step forward he took against Booker, who scored nine points for his worst outing of the season.

“I think (Popovich) appreciates when I go out and play without fouling,” Paul said.

Block party canceled: LaMarcus Aldridge failed to block a shot against Phoenix, snapping a streak of 17 consecutive games with a swat that had been the longest in the league.

Before Sunday, Aldridge’s last blockless game came against Dallas on April 7 of last season.
